absence

I am thinking about the deep mean of a word 'absence'. There isn't a person who should be at the place where he should be. There isn't a usual smile there.
My father passed away two weeks ago at the age of 83 with all his family at his bedside. Though he fought against cancer for nearly 20 years, it was the end appropriate for my decent, sincere and gentle father.
He appreciated my work. He always came with my mother to the concerts which my instruments were used. Prof. Glen Wilson and Ms. Naoko Akutagawa's recital on 28 February was the last time that he had gone to a concert. I'm happy that my father could have heard the great performances at the last time.

Thank you Dad!
May you rest in peace.
